我國著作權授權之探討—以司法實務見解為中心

著作財産權乃法律上賦予著作人取得具有排他性之專屬權利，使著作人能在排除他人競爭之前提下獲取經濟上之利益，如他人未經其同意而於法律禁止之情形下違法使用其著作，得予以禁止並請求損害賠償。然而，因現行社會事務繁雜、分工細密，著作人單獨行使其著作財產權未必是效益最高者，如著作人雖有創作能力，但如缺乏行銷或推廣所需之資金、經營及行銷能力，同一著作可發揮經濟價值之空間，與委託具有充分資金，經營及行銷能力者對比，即相對減少。是故，著作權法即規範著作人可透過授權制度，將利用著作之權利授權他人實施，著作人並可依該授權契約取得一定金額之權利金作為報酬，取得授權人則可利用著作從事經濟活動，除賺取利潤外，更可達到著作權法第1條所定之「調和社會公共利益，促進國家文化發展」目的，在現今著作發展迅速的現代，著作權授權制度之良劣與否，攸關著作能否合法流通甚鉅，著作能否以合法，迅速之方式流通，即影響一國之文化及科技之發展。本文先行以著作權相關之國際公約介紹「著作權授權制度」之發展起源，再以目前我國著作權法之著作利用授權方式加以分類探討後，就現今我國法院有關著作權授權之相關案例進行分析，最後就我國在著作權法制上對於著作權授權規範，嘗試提出研究見解。
